I though R&C All-4-one was a bit weak especially making it a 4-player co-op game. Fortunately, Insomniac's full titles of Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time along with their track record leads me to believe they will do better in the future.

I don't even know why From Dust was on there. That game was beautiful and I had absolutely ZERO pathfinding issues so I don't know how others could have. It shows you the peoples' path so make sure nothing messes with it. The last level is truly incredible. I've put hours and hours into crafting multiple landscapes and sitting back watching the natural phenomena and then changing it and seeing what happens. Nothing disappointing about it.

I haven't played Duke Nukem yet but from what I've heard, I'm better off not playing.

yeah a crack in time was the best ratchet game since 2 so i had high hopes for the next one. then i seen all 4 one and knew it was going to be disappointing. either way im sure they will come back strong.

i personally didnt like from dust but admittedly i didnt give it a truly fair chance so no opinion there.

didnt play brink so once again no opinion.

and that brings me to duke, oh poor duke. you are correct, dont bother. i payed 5 dollars for it at best buy, it wasnt worth that....well deserved win, although it saddens me, i loved the original.

I loved DNF.. Don't care for the others..

dragon age 2.

DAO is one of may fav games of all time, no reason that DA2 shouldnt have been better, build upon what worked and remove what didnt. add in some new features that didnt make it into origins and write another epic story following the grey wardens and what happened to them after DAO.

instead we got DA2, i dont need to tell anyone how terrible it was :(

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.

Venoxn4g586d ago

It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot629d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan628d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel629d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
